Examples

The following code demonstrates how to access a service document and retrieve edit URI values. For additional examples of how AtomPub can be used to manage feed content, download the AtomPub sample.

function createResource() {
    try {
        // Refresh client in case server url or credential have changed.
        createClient();

        var title = document.getElementById("titleField").value;
        if (title === "") {
            outputField.innerHTML = "Post title cannot be blank";
            return;
        }

        var serviceUri = new Windows.Foundation.Uri(document.getElementById("serviceAddressField").value.trim() + defaultServiceDocUri);
        outputField.innerHTML = "Fetching service document: " + serviceUri.absoluteUri + "</br>";
        findEditUri(serviceUri).then(function (resourceUri) {
            if (!resourceUri) {
                outputField.innerHTML += "Error: Edit uri not found in service document";
                return null;
            }

            outputField.innerHTML += "Uploading post: " + resourceUri.absoluteUri + "</br>";

            var item = new Windows.Web.Syndication.SyndicationItem();
            item.title = new Windows.Web.Syndication.SyndicationText(title, Windows.Web.Syndication.SyndicationTextType.text);
            var content = document.getElementById("bodyField").value;
            item.content = new Windows.Web.Syndication.SyndicationContent(content, Windows.Web.Syndication.SyndicationTextType.html);

            return client.createResourceAsync(resourceUri, item.title.text, item);
        }).done(function (result) {
            if (result) {
                outputField.innerHTML += "Posted at " + result.itemUri.absoluteUri + "</br>";
                outputField.innerHTML += "Complete</br>";
            }
        }, onError);
    }
    catch (ex) {
        outputField.innerHTML += "Exception:" + ex + "</br>";
    }
}
